(Verse 1) Staring at the digital clock on my desk. Glowing 3:00 AM, my mind is a mess. Fifteen years of breathing, but am I alive? Or just a background character trying to survive? I touch the cold glass of my window pane. To see if I can feel the sting of the rain. Everything is muffled, everything is gray. I'm just a paper doll drifting away (Chorus) Is my life all a dream? A heavy mist that covers the floorI am tearing at the seamsWaiting for a knock on my door. Can somebody find me and pull me tight? Tell me Iβm wanted, keep me safe through the nightIs my life all a dream? Or will someone finally make it real? (Verse 2) I sit at the lunch table, surrounded by noise. Ghostly conversations of girls and of boysI reach out my hand, searching for a sign. That there is a place in this world that is mineIβm longing for a voice that calls out my name. Not out of pity, and not as a game. Just someone who sees me when I close my eyes. And stays by my side when the sun starts to rise. (Bridge) I don't need the world to know who I amI just need one person to understand. To hold back the shadows when I start to shake. To promise me safety whenever I wake. Are you out there watching? Help me find where I belong. (Chorus) Is my life all a dream?A heavy mist that covers the floor. I am tearing at the seams. Waiting for a knock on my door. Can somebody find me and pull me tight? Tell me Iβm wanted, keep me safe through the nightIs my life all a dream? Or will someone finally make it real? (Outro) The clock ticks away... Moving out of the gray... Wait for the light. Wait for the day.
